e beginner will under-stand this as equivalent to saying that the loci do not inter-sect at all. The meaning of the phrase is that imaginaryvalues of x and y may be found which satisfy both equations,and the advanced student finds advantage in recognizing thisfact. 19. Limiting Cases of… … By elimination,whence 24x - 72 = 0,X = 3, y = 0. The loci intersect in one point (3, 0). (Fig. 24.) LOCI. 39 Again, it may happen that the elimination causes both x*^and X to disappear, thus showing the equations to be contra-clictory. We have then no point of intersection. Ex. 2. Consider…
